Revolutionising Synchronisation: Defence Trailblazer, QuantX Labs and the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide Collaborate on Atomic Clock Technology
Read the on the Defence Trailblazer Website
Adelaide, 最新糖心Vlog 鈥 October 12, 2024听鈥 Defence Trailblazer is excited to announce a strategic partnership with the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide and QuantX Labs, aimed at advancing cutting-edge quantum technologies.听听
Collaborative Research Agreement听
This partnership, building on four years of collaboration, will focus on advancing atomic clock technology with an aim to exceed current industry standards and significantly enhance navigation networks.听
When global satellite navigation networks like GPS become unavailable, critical infrastructure鈥攕uch as data centres, electricity networks, stock exchanges, telecommunications, and defence technology鈥攃an be compromised due to their reliance on precise synchronisation across multiple locations. The development of advanced clocks ensures these systems remain synchronised for extended periods, even when satellite signals are jammed or spoofed. This concern is no longer theoretical; multiple conflict zones worldwide are currently experiencing these challenges.听
QuantX Labs, leaders in precision timing, are developing a suite of quantum clocks for both terrestrial and space applications. This project will explore alternate techniques to ensure their TEMPO clock is developed with the best, fit-for-purpose technologies.听
Industry Research Project听
Additionally, a 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide PhD student, Lachlan Pointon, will be working on novel techniques for optical clocks leading to greater precision. High precision clocks provide greater stability, providing critical navigation capabilities for the warfighter in GPS-degraded environments, ensuring reliable operations when traditional systems fail.听
